The captcha is impossible to solve! #1848

What's the question you have about lemmy? I can't join the site because the captcha is too hard to solve...

There's also an audio play button if its too difficult to read.

That's also impossible to solve.

I just tried the captcha on lemmy.ml and failed a couple times, it really is too hard. One thing you can do is press the reload button next to the captcha, until you get an easier one.

We are currently using captcha difficulty hard on lemmy.ml, maybe that should be changed to medium. It might also be worth opening an issue in https://github.com/daniel-e/captcha, which is the library that generates our captchas.

I've lowered it to medium for now.
